The Secret Life of Birds

With funding from BCC, Secret City Arts has been nesting on the Arts Bus for our creative arts project The Secret Life of Birds

We’ve been asking:
What do we see when we see birds?
What do birds see when they see us?
Do birds listen to our music and noise, as we listen to their calls? What do birds’ songs say? What do birds dream about?

We’ve been responding by:
Making paper birds to add to our ever-growing flock
Recording memories of birds in the city
Ribbon-writing
Imagining a bird’s-eye view of our city.

Also check out our feathery pages for links and how to get involved online and create your own bird-inspired craft projects.
